Chapter 15.13
Haley Sousa
Main Idea
The human brain is about three times larger than that of our closest living
relative, the chimpanzee
Why is this?
The Human Brain
An Example
On Thanksgiving humans eat so much food that they get tired, so it takes
more energy for the food to process
Having a big brain results in more energy to be processed which can be
harmful
THEREFORE
The goal was NOT to have a big brain, it just so happened to be that was as a
reaction to the body or the environment.
Thank you! Any questions?
